Turn this screw 2 full turns CCW and the whole thing lifts off easily. The spline is not included, nor is it necessary. Dependable Care splines are Teflon coated and you will rarely find one that is corroded.

I think there was once a tranny kit for the old orbital transmission that used to require a new agitator. In fact a blue agitator came with it. Later they changed the kit to swap out the shaft for the agitator instead.

You can beat the old part out of there any old way you want, but at the end of the day you still have to install a pristeen set of new parts that require the spanner wrench. The idea is to properly tighten it down without knocking all the porcelain off the spin basket.

Does that nut come off clockwise or counter clockwise. There are instructions both ways.
